Day 23 April13

Today we researched SmartBoards and their potential to be used in the classroom for learning. One topic we discussed was whether or not SmartBoards are worth the investment with prices around $5000 each. An article we looked at suggested that they are worth the investment as noted in this exerpt "All the children, parents, and teachers interviewed on the use of interactive whiteboards in education believed the teaching was more fun, more engaging, more exciting and was impacting upon the enjoyment, speed and depth of learning".
